I have a friend that beat this a little over 10 years ago. He was treated at MD Anderson in Huston and he has put me in-touch with them. They now have my pathology report faxed and insurance cards and signed documents pdf'ed and emailed. They acknowledged receipt saying I should be hearing from their Head and Neck Center soon.
PET/CT Scan tomorrow!
I'm locally scheduled to have a Med Port installed on Tuesday AM and they will admit me probable Tuesday or Wednesday to start TPF chemo: Docetaxel(Taxotere) 75mg/m2 iv over 1 hour d1 Cisplatin (CDPP) 75 mg/m2 iv over 1 hour d1 5-FU 750 mg/m2/d civi d1-4 Repeating every 3-4 weeks.
